Question

What server monitoring do you use, both for statistics and security?

--------------------
tl;dr ends here

Ideally I would like to have one clean dashboard that shows me all the nodes I have, proxmox already offers a great range of stats - but it is a page per container etc. so not ideal, I thought of having datadoghq, but their per host pricing is huge, since I have more than 5 hosts to track.

    NetData maybe? Nagios is great as well.

    @linuxxx ohh I forgot netdata, thanks! but now looking at the docs I remember that I was for some reason struggling to setup some backend server, to be able to watch older records, wonder if thats still any major issue with it.

    @fthielen have you set it up on multiple nodes?

    @JoshBent yes, but with Netdata sadly you don’t have a single Interface for all of your Servers

    @fthielen ofcourse you can, it says in the docs, its just hell of a pain imho to route it all so nobody from the outside can access the sub-nodes and only the main panel.

    @JoshBent What? I should definitly look at this!
    And what's about connecting the nodes together with a p2p vpn?

    @fthielen you mean you use a vpn to establish a connection to the internal server network? well then just bind the main node to a local ip, which is then only accessible via vpn.

    No, i mean that the nodes are connected among themselves with a vpn, and the sub-nodes are bind to the vpn-ip

    @fthielen I am not sure what you're asking, but I'll assume you mean how to set it up if all nodes are connected via vpn - that basically means again, you have a network, which is accessible only via vpn, so there you can again limit the main node to respond to only the vpn ip or network, when you bind it in the configs: https://github.com/firehol/netdata/...
